Evangelina Mascardi, Bach Complete Lute Works by Arcana

[pillettadoinswartsh]

As God wrote through Bach, Bach plays through Evangelina.

[inneswilliamc]

It's been said that Bach's music is the perfect marriage between the intellect and the heart. You elucidate the former quality and enliven the latter. Thank you again.

[sunsettersix]

Not only do I find her playing amazing, but also how she is playing this from memory! I can't even remember what I came into my office for before getting distracted by Youtube. :/

[duncanferguson]

This proves that absolute beautiful perfection can exist within this world. Thank you Evangelina.

[jean-francoisbedel]

J'écoute, je ré-écoute... Pas de mots... Sublime... L'âme de Bach flotte près d'Evangelina Mascardi...

[sltomsik]

Beautiful. Nice tempo and dynamics. Refined and clear performance. The room acoustics and good sound engineering contribute much to this exceptional recorded performance. I love it.

[vhsy]

The lute is mother Evangelina's child; she almost breastfeeds it with Bach's milk even more delicately than an actual breastfeeding. Crystalline virtuosity, impeccable bravery & total immersion in the incredibly memorized notes and the magestic facial gestures accompanying the fecund act... all in a warmly decorated baroque interior which coheres with her simple black dress and hairdo that leaves an air of asceticism and austerity... living excellence indeed.

[MakeWeirdMusic]

Absolutely and totally wonderful. Love the birds in the background, too.

[macaferi]

A wonderful interpretation of this work which I never tire of. You played it with wonderful clarity, warmth and musical understanding of how I believe Bach should sound.

[mobayguy]

Magnifico ! - Thanks again Evangelina for another superb performance. If perfection exists, your performance may be the definition. Grazie.

[moelarrycurly]
